'The Manny Pacquiao Return' Contract Clause



Dear Sen. Emmanuel Dapidran Pacquiao,

In light of recent talks about a possible return to boxing, the 'Filipino Nation' (the "Company") is pleased to offer you the position of 'Boxer' on regular terms.

As a Boxer, you compensation will be as follows:

A) Basic Salary

You will be paid on a per-fight basis amounting to more or less $20M per fight. The basic salary is subject to deductions and withholdings. In case of tax discrepancies, it is your due diligence to make amends with the tax-governing body.

B) Pay-per-view Buys

You are also entitled to a percentage of pay-per-view buys.

C) Company Support

As a Filipino modern-day hero, you are eligible to receive the support of the united Filipino Nation (the "Company") to ensure that you always exert maximum effort in your fights.

D) Million-Dollar Bonus

By accepting this job, you have an opportunity to lure Mr. Floyd Mayweather out of retirement and receive a high bonus. Also, you will be given the privelege to inflict Mr. Mayweather's first loss of his professional boxing career.

By signing this agreement, you are eligible for all the aforementioned compensation package.

Provisions

To preserve and protect the best interest of the Company, you are requested to abide by all Company's following provisions:

1.) Slide back to light welterweight

The Company has noticed the drastic decline in your punching power since climbing up to welterweight ranks. The Company deemed it a risky move as your bigger opponents can absorb your punches and they can return fire with such impact that your normal body frame cannot handle. In lieu with this, the Company has advised you to return to light welterweight where you can reassert your vaunted fists of fury.

2.) Entourage revamp

Upon reviewing your previous fights, the Company strongly suggests you revamp your entourage to include only subordinates who can keep you in the best fighting shape as the extra number of people could take your focus away and compromise your best efforts.

3.) Commitment

You hereby commit to devote the whole of your time, attention, and skills to the Company. Therefore you are advised to drop your other endeavors such as politics, entertainment, basketball, and religion so you can solely focus on being the best boxer representing the Company.


Failure to comply with above provisions could result in a vote of no confidence from the "Company" hence reserving the right to subject you in a social media evaluation.

This agreement supersedes any other agreements or promises made to you by anyone, whether oral or written.


Sincerely,

Filipino Nation (the "Company")
